Bento attempt .... Angry Birds and Pancakes..

 

The week before CNY, I fried some bee hoon with canned pig trotters.  It was a speciality that my mom cooked and I was inspired to cook too.  It tasted alright but of cos my mom's one was much better.

 

Anyway, Louis has "picky" eyes.  If he doesn't like the food at the sight of it, he wouldn't even want to try it. Haiz... forcing him just doesn't work and he will "inspect" the food before it goes into his mouth.  He wouldn't eat anything with vegetables, corn and carrots.  He doesn't even eat duck previously as Ducks are supposed to be his bathmates and not food.  OMG.  hahaha..  He loves noodles though.  So any type of strip looking stuffs, we will tell him it's noodles - including bee hoon.  As I was cooking the fried bee hoon, I was also thinking what I can make it into.  Recently, he's just craze about the Angry Birds' Yellow bird.  So, since the colour is closest to the yellow bird.  I shaped it into a triangle and made some brows and expressions for it using seaweed.   It really doesn't look really alike, I must say cos I was free cutting the seaweed and trying to serve the hungry people out there asap....

 

Well.... but as long as Louis likes it.... who cares! hahah..



Yesterday, I decided to try making pancakes again.  This round I use a pre-mix pancake mixture and made 2 angry birds and a rilakkuma pancakes.  :P 

As for the methods, I put the mixture into a squeeze bottle.  In the frying pan, I squeeze out the brows, the eyes, noses, ears and the face first. Let it cook for a while before pouring the batter to fill up the spaces.   This way, the eyes/noses/ears are actually a darker shade from the rest of the face.

Weekends: Pancakes .... Bento..

Looks like my Woofy Creations is suddenly turning into a food blog. hmmm.... :P

Last weekend, I have the mood to make ourselves breakfast.  I was inspired by my friend, Christina who made very nice looking pancakes.  And her hubby made a jumbo breakfast adding hotdogs and eggs! Yum Yum... So, I decided to make for us too. hahaha.. and I also bought a Piggy pan from Daiso - but it failed. hmmmmmmmmm... and there were 2 hungry monsters outside waiting for their breakfast.. so I didn't explore further.

I didn't get the pancakes premix.  Instead, I made the batter from scratch... zzzzzzzzzz... mainly also because I was unsure whether I want to make pancakes or not. Then on Sunday, it was a split seconds decision. (this is just so me.................................. I believe, that's why I prefer to work on my own.. cos it's easier to make decisions.. I think.)

Anyway, this is my breakfast.... and the boys enjoyed it.  It wasn't filling enough to be honest.  I fried another 2 eggs after that for Louis and myself, which no chance to take picture before we gobbled it down.  hahahaha!

We went out lunch at Changi Airport after sending my parents for a wedding lunch.  Had Popeye Chicken..? or something like that.  Hmm.. it didn't really fantastic.  Should have just stick to food court.. hot and yummy food..

Then... dinner... was too tired to cook anything.  We tabao from zichar.  I was dying to try out a bento for louis and here it is.... my 1st bento.. :D ... it just look so cute and appetising after decorating.  Louis finished everything! hmm.........

Will try out vegetable garden.. hehehe.. hopefully will lure him eating vegetables.. :P
